If you’re looking to ensure your Genshin Impact game is up-to-date on Steam Deck, we’ve got the steps laid out for you.

Quick Guide to Updating Genshin Impact on Steam Deck

Updating Genshin Impact on your Steam Deck involves a few simple steps. Since Genshin Impact isn’t available directly through Steam’s store, you’ll be using the compatibility layer software like Proton or a similar Wine-based tool to play it. Here’s how to get started:

First, ensure your Steam Deck is connected to a stable internet connection. Then, navigate to your Steam Library where you’ve added Genshin Impact as a non-Steam game. Right-click on Genshin Impact and select ‘Properties’, then ‘Compatibility’. Make sure you’ve enabled the Proton compatibility layer for the game. Genshin Impact should automatically check for updates when you launch it through this method. If there’s an update available, follow the in-game prompts to download and install it.
